Pentax Espio 95S 35mm camera w/ case (serial 33647508)

The Pentax Espio 95S is a quality 35mm point-and-shoot from circa 2001. Here's the original product description:

"The stylish Espio 95S combines a 38mm~95mm zoom lens with a host of user-friendly features, including reliable autofocus and auto-exposure systems, an auto flash, and a large LCD panel. Its ergonomic body design, compact dimensions and outstanding cost performance make it the perfect household camera for every family occasion."

Key Features

• Zoom & Macro: Incorporates a 38mm–95mm 2.5x zoom lens with a zoom macro capability to capture close-up images from approx. 80 cm (2.6 ft) at any focal length.
• Ease of Use: Fully automatic operation from film handling to focusing, exposure, and flash, allowing the photographer to concentrate on the subject.
• Auto Flash: Built-in flash automatically discharges in low light. Includes a red-eye reduction function*, daylight sync, slow-shutter-speed sync, bulb sync, and a flash-off mode.
• Zoom Viewfinder: Viewfinder automatically adjusts the image area in proportion to the selected focal length for exact picture framing.
• Information Display: Large top-panel LCD displays camera operation information for quick status confirmation.
• Self-Timer: Built-in 10-second delay self-timer for self-portraits or joining group shots.
• Special Modes: "Infinity-landscape" mode fixes focus at infinity. "Bulb" mode allows exposures up to one minute. Both are set via simple pushbutton operation.
• Auto Power Off: Automatically shuts off power after three minutes of non-use to conserve the battery.
• Date Imprinting (DATE model): Automatically records the date or time on the photograph, with a blank mode available.
• Red-Eye Note: The red-eye reduction function does not eliminate red eyes in all instances.

Battery information

The camera requires a CR123 lithium battery (optional).

Battery life (using 24-exposure film rolls): Approx. 15 rolls when sing flash 50% of the time (using the CR123A battery and under Pentax testing conditions).

Actual battery life / performance may vary drastically depending on usage of Auto-Focus, Power Zoom, Flash and external conditions such as temperature and freshness of the battery.

Condition notes 

The camera was tested with a battery and film installed and all functions are working well (we didn't develop the film). We verified the film plane focus accuracy on an autocollimator. The camera is in very good cosmetic condition with some minor wear from use (see photos). The original case shows war from age (see photo).
